She is an accomplished musician and
die-hard Cleveland Indians fan. Anne
is a life-long student of American
history, particularly the Civil War
and does genealogy and historical
research “for fun.” Anne Lowery is the
author of Rumor Has It.
According to the book description of
Rumor Has It, “1974,
Washington DC was abuzz with Watergate
and the boxing world was abuzz with
news of the second fight between
Frazier and Ali. But in a small town
hanging in central Ohio, mid way
between Cleveland and Toledo, the talk
of the town was not Watergate or Ali.
It was water and blood. And the
current underneath? Good old fashioned
gossip.
In Anne Lowery’s new book, Rumor Has
It, politics, murder, and gossip
intertwine like threads in a quilt,
weaving a story blending fact and
fiction which even the newspapers
couldn’t quite keep straight.
